Temperance.
A Manufacturing establishment

This is just what it is. Here
drunkards are made. The angel of
humais nature is cast out and trans
formed into very demon of hate
and horror. The sublimest express
ion that ever greets the eye OF God
as he looks down to earth is that of
the human face divine, when anima-
ted with love and good will He
who would. as an artist, go TO the
canvas of the masters and transform,
as he might with few ready touch
es. the faces of grace and beauty
into those of deformity and hate,
would deserve the reproaches OF men
for ever. But how much more does
he deserve the execrations of human
ity who seeks to thus transform the
noble face of man And he who
transforms the face and seeks as
well. and not wholly in vain, to
transform the nature.
Would the saloon-keeper demonize
the man: Is it his business to eX-
tinguish for ever the flowers of vir-
tue that grow so sweetly and nat
urallv from the soil of the human
heart? Just this, nothing less, but
even more; He may uproOt all the
fair flowers of your conservatory,
and in the place of each plant the
thorn. the brier, and the thistle.
Nav, more for your domestic COM
panions he may send the Kissing ser
pent, the voracious vulture, and the
prowling hvena But with all of
this he would not work a transfor-
nation so terrible. so ruthless, and
50 cruel.
The saloon-keeper. If he be not
the veriest wretch Of earth, his bus
mess is to SOW the heart with wretch
edness, and clothe the home with
want. misery and shame. He is the
robber and murderer both in one. He
drains the poor mans pocket Of the
money which his children need for
bread and clothing, and gives him
therefor no value received he par
alyzes his body with draughts of
poison, and sends him prematurely
to the grave without hope for his
soul. God pronounces his curse
against the man who ''puts his bottle
to his neighbours lips and makes
him drunken Herewith. 1t is
time that the world in the Sc
verify Of earnest law should ring
the same woe in the ears of such
men.

Three Wars.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1887-06-13
Three W ars.

There were two wars in the nited
States over the slavery question.
Perhaps some one will say, s'that is
a mistake, but it is only too true.
The one continued nearly a hundred
years, the other was over in a little
over four years from the time the
first gun was fired The latter was
fought by men and boys, while in the
former some women were among the
most gifted leaders. The shorter
one killed off many thousands of the
best and noblest men in the cOun-
try, while the longer one was not of
such a character as to rob one per-
son of life. The one was cruel
war of muskets and swords and can
mons, the other an earnest contest
of pens and tongues. 1t required
brave hearts and cool heads to bat
tie nearly a century for what they
knew to be right, and against the
great wrong that was being commit
ted against millions of men and wom-
Ell and children as well as against
God. In the battle of the pens
Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe was a
noble leader. Perhaps no one writ
er did more for the cause of the
emancipation of the negroes from
slavery than she did.
There is another war going on
now in this country. The one side
is actually losing more than three
score thousand lives every year,
These are mostly men, although
there are some women and children
among them. The other side is
losing perhaps twice as many wom-
en- and children every year, although
there are not so many men whose
lives are lost on this side. This
may seem like queer war, but it is
a terribly real one. 1t has been
going on Tor more than hundred
years. and it will continue for many
yeaas to come. At first the people
were nearly all on one side, but the
weak side has been gaining SO rapid
" that in some of the states there
is already a majority in its favor.
1t is the conflict between temperance
and intemperance. We hope the
readers of the Sentinel are all fight
ing nobly in this war against this
dreadful evil of strong drink Are
YOU all enrolled as members of some
temperance society? If not, enlist
at once, and ask the Lord to make
you good, loyal and courageous sol
diers.-ES.

Physicians have discovered that
ice-water is deadly, aside from the
fact that it chills and paralyzes the
stomach. Disease germs lie dor
mant in their ice palaces ready to be
thawed into vigorous activity that
they may prey upon the human vitals.
Bacteria by the million, sufficient to
infect a whole country with typhoid
fever or other dreadful maladies,
have been found in a chunk of ice
not larger than the little silver the
ice man leaves before the family door
each morning, Medical science is
making existence a fearful thing.
The only article that may be safely
taken into the stomach is medicine,
and not even that without first con-
sulting a physician.
